Photo by @anandavarma. A parasitic horse hair worm crawls out the back end of a house cricket. This mind-controlling worm forces the cricket to find water so the worm can emerge safely to continue its life cycle in an aquatic environment. Photographed for the November @natgeo “Mindsuckers" story which just won first prize in the nature category at #WorldPressPhoto. #parasitesarecool #WTFevolution
